On this day, Chen Tang called Wang Mo: "Master Wang, you take a few servants out and ask about those who are missing." For each household, a detailed record is made. ”

When Wang Mo heard this, he was overjoyed: "My lord, do you want to help find someone?"

You must know that among the missing people is also his friend Bai Chong. Before, I couldn't do anything, but now it's different.

Chen Tang said vaguely: "Let's file first." ”

But I understand in my heart that those missing scholars and talents, nine times out of ten, have no bones, where to find them?

"Good. ”

Wang Moxing rushed to take the people away.

Chen Tang sat in the public room and was silent.

It is said that the new official has three fires, but in the face of many affairs, he doesn't know how to burn it. The taxes are fixed by the imperial court, which is difficult to shake and cannot be changed. What can be done is nothing more than to make great efforts to develop the people's livelihood economy. But the conditions of the times are here, and many things cannot be changed by change.

As for the interior of the yamen, before taking office, I thought that there would be a lot of resistance, and the people below would do things in violation of the yin and yang, and push three obstacles or something. But that day, he appeared in front of everyone with two spirit corpses, and the scene was immediately shocked.

Who would dare to despise an adult who can kill demons? Even the old fritters have put away their temperament and clamped their tails to be humans.

Officials are cunning, but they also vary from person to person. If the superior has enough strength, the people below will not dare to move.

In this way, Chen Tang wanted to make an example of killing chickens and monkeys, but he couldn't find anyone to start. That's just right, and it saves a lot of work. He deliberately showed his edge in front of people, and this is also his purpose.

As the leader of the local forces, the attitude of Lieutenant Du is a weather vane, and he has already obeyed. Do whatever you want, let the east never go west. Secretly, he ordered his subordinates to be more peaceful, especially not to extort the merchants and the common people casually - at least not at this stage.

The appearance of the entire county has changed solemnly, and there is a bit of a clean and strict atmosphere. In the past, there were people who disappeared from time to time, although for many families, it was none of their business, but such news always made people uneasy and secretly panicked.

However, recently, the yamen issued a notice, saying that there are monsters to haunt them, but they have been killed and eliminated, so that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment.

Seeing the notice, everyone rushed to tell each other and was overjoyed.

Chen Tang killed Liu Junbao, and there were several treatment plans, including changing into a Mowgli painting skin to "leave no name". However, after thinking about it, I don't think it's necessary. Whether there is someone behind Liu Junbao is one thing, but whether there is or not, in fact, the result is the same. He came at Chen Tang and died. Such an account, of course, is counted on Chen Tang's body.

There are some things that never need proof.

The root cause of the matter has been buried since he borrowed Wang Mo's house and killed the two monsters of donkeys and pigs.

But even if he does it all over again, Chen Tang will still make a move.

Since there is no need to conceal it, it is better to publicize it. On the bright side, killing spirits is a feat, and it will be rewarded by superiors. And for the people of the city, it is also an exciting thing.

After sending the head to the state office, an official letter was sent back, and there were many words of praise on it. It was also mentioned that in a certain period of time, there would be an inspector who would come down to inspect the ......

The term of office of magistrates is usually three years. During this period, there is a system of evaluation and review to evaluate the merits of the official, so that he can be promoted or dismissed.

The whole set of procedures, well organized.

The content of the assessment is varied, mainly in terms of taxation, human governance, education, etc. If there is a murder case under the jurisdiction, points will be deducted. For example, if the murder case is man-made, even if the case is solved in the end and the murderer is arrested, it will be recorded in terms of political achievements. However, if it is found to be the work of the spirit, the nature of the case is different.

Regarding evil spirits and demons, the existence of the two has long been not a secret, and the events committed by them are mainly handled by the Nine Gates. But if the local government organizes itself, the landowner will be praised.

It's all a set rule.

Although the spirit has been eliminated in Nanfu County, according to the procedure, it is reasonable that an inspector will come down to inspect the situation.

After reading the official letter, Chen Tang didn't know which inspector came down. Even if you know, you won't know. When he first entered the career, he can be said to be poor and white in terms of connections, almost zero.

This is a very real problem, neither from a big family, nor a teacher who is a high-ranking official or a noble person to lead the way, if you want to accumulate contacts, you can only start from a little bit. Now that he has just become an official, where can he know people?

However, he has always adhered to his heart in doing things for others, and as for other things, he has never thought too much about it. Wait for the patrol to come down and receive it according to the normal procedures.

In the afternoon, Wang Mo came back with a sad face.

Chen Tang asked, "What's wrong?"

Wang Mo replied: "My lord, Uncle Bai is dead, he committed suicide by hanging the beam, and died at home. When I found it, the body was still dangling from the beam......"

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but choke up.

Chen Tang and the old man had only met once, and they had never said a word. At that time, I felt that the other party was not mentally normal. The only son disappeared, and his wife accidentally fell to death, leaving him alone, old and helpless, and living a miserable life, which can be imagined.

immediately sighed gloomily and said, "Let the yamen pay for it, and the good life will be buried." ”

Wang Mo said: "My lord is benevolent and righteous. ”

Chen Tang asked again: "What is the situation of other families?"

Wang Mo shook his head: "It's all bad." ”

The missing people are all scholars, and it is not easy for a family to raise a scholar out. I don't know how much money and energy it costs to provide books and teaching. But I just hope that this son can be famous in the exam and get ahead. However, suddenly no one disappeared, and the blow to the family was so great that there is no need to say more.

"Damn demons, they're all evil deeds. Luckily, there are adults here, kill them one by one!"

Also as a victim, Wang Mo couldn't hide his hatred for demons.

Chen Tang nodded very understandingly: "Master Wang, you pay attention to those people, if you have any needs, try to help solve them, don't be negligent." ”

Wang Mo hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my lord, my humble duty will definitely be done properly." ”

"Also, after some time, an inspector will come down to inspect it. If you look at what you need to pay attention to, you have to do it well. ”

Chen Tang commanded again.

He is the first time to be an official, and Wang Mo is also the first time to be a master, so it is inevitable that he will be inexperienced. I'm afraid that I will be in a hurry and out of the basket.

"Understood. ”

Wang Mo replied awe-inspiringly, and then went out to work.

After a few days, a fast horse came into the city to tell him that the envoy sent by the state government was on the way. At about dusk, they arrived in Nanfu County, and asked the county government to prepare for the greeting in advance.
